    Work tomorrow. Anxious as usual. Also i had to attend a "meeting" today more like shouting match. That was also so stressful and i hated it.

    I had covid last march and still had to work From home and I was pretty much dead. Putting up a mask for people is also very draining and just takes more energy away. It’s why, it’s important to use the time you have free and manage that time to ensure that you can recharge. I am learning this myself. Glad that the meeting wasn’t about work! Although really sucks that everyone was aggressive.

    It sucks that we have to work even while sick. I hope you are well now. I wish i had more time to recharge as well, i am also pretty much dead when i come home from work.

    Oh yeah, far recovered and I’m not working there anymore. Learned a lot though from that job and the recent one I had and now know how to recharge and not bring work home with me as often as I did. Sorry that you feel dead when you return from work. Take care of yourself. And don’t be too hard on yourself either. I know it’s hard to not do.=)

    I have no idea why people get angry or annoyed at small things. Esp. At the work place. I want to transfer some maturity to some NT s i work with.

    Things that trigger you might not trigger others. It's all about perspective.

    Yes or maybe i misunderstand people. I wish one of them was less prickly though.

    Agree. Some people just have a short fuse so I try not to be around them.

    I have been working while sick for 3 days bc there is no one else in the office who is free enough to do this work. But my coworkers say the workload is Light. Lol!

    I've only been to a sushi bar once, but i loved it, wish they had one in my city

    I think i will go to the office on the weekend. Since there was something that i missed again bc no one told me to do that task.
    AprilR
    Feeling like i want to quit again. I am Just too abnormal and not fit for my job. Everyone expects me to do or say some things without any explanation and some social instinct

    Best song.

    Her voice is similar to Tracy Chapman's, on this particular song. I never noticed a similarity between them, until I listened to this.

    I have bought some gluten free food. I hope it helps with my stomach issues

    Good luck. Hope it works out. Our Walmarts sell gluten free bread here.

    Simple blood test will show if you're gluten intolerant. Around 1% of Americans have celiac disease. I'd suggest looking to stress levels, diet in genreal (processed/sugar etc).

    Hi April, I noticed it was your birthday. I hope you had a nice one!

    Her username reminded me of Wednesday from the Addams family. Such a good TV series.

    Hmm what i meant to say is, i am not "myself" and "carefree" around people much, i don't share myself much so i don't lose much when i lose them. Bc we didn't have any common ground to begin with

    I do something similar April. I really wish I could be myself and not worry. I do overshare and I do trust a too much however, and this is something that I also have realized that I have to not do too much either.

    For me it’s being considerate of others, regardless of closeness. Every human relationship requires adapting to one another and autism makes it no different IMO. The neurotypical just need to try harder to understand our differences so we don’t break ourselves in the process of trying to please others

    I am not happy neither sad. I am just tired.

    Expectations and hope are the worst. I don't want to depend on anyone or anything ever again. I am too tired to be left alone yet again
